You can enter right up to the date of the event, at the event site, Liberty Landing Marina, but I advise you to enter now by mail. You will receive a return confirmation and a lot of valuable information about the run. You can e-mail me with any direct concerns: billy@nationalpowerboat.com or call me at 203-532-1312.
It is going to be quite a show with a number of TV productions being spun off of this event. "MONSTER NATION" just came on board from California( the producers of Monster Garage and Monster House).
We are additionally separating the "Speed Contestants"(who will run in the front line) from the "Poker Runners" to make it a safer and a less intimidating event for the participants.
For the New York area TV viewers that get Channel 11, WPIX, watch on Friday morning, June 18th, between 6 am and 9 am, and see Larry Hoff get together with Dave Patneude of Typhoon Marine and the Cigarette Racing Team girls for some "live" Hudson River previews.
Now we are having FUN!

Thanks Tripps. Mostly, it needs time. I want to replace the fuel system and add a surge tank. It also needs break-in time on a fresh powerhead. I am at a point that I do not want to rush it. I really need to go through alot of the rigging. Been finding alot of wear on fuel lines, the hydraulic lines for the steering and jack plates. I am going to start from the transom and work my way forward. I wish I had the time over the winter to mess with it, but no inside shop and I was working alot. Oh well....
In the end, I hope to make the 1000 Islands Run for the 1st time this year.

Plans were coming together to bring out a Kevlar/Carbon fiber Bullet 130 for NPBA's 2005 Hudson Run...
It was going to be a promotional run for the new owner of the molds.
Unfortunately last week he informed me that he has been hit with so many orders for 30 footers, that he didn't seem to think he would have the time for the Bullet.
So I still have the Bullet Molds up for sale....
I'll be talking with another guy this week, the deal may not be totally off.
We'll see....
I would love to do it again.....
